This year’s BK Restaurant Week reservations are well underway, and whether it’s at a regular haunt or somewhere new, we’re excited to see all of you getting those bookings in. If you are still perusing our massive list for your first (or next!) reservation, here are 10 venues that you’d be remiss to not snatch a seat at ASAP. Loyal holders of UOB and TMRW cards issued in Thailand will also be treated to a free dish as part of their meal. The event is also brought to you by our premium water sponsors Vittel and Perrier, whose products will be served at select venues.

 

Bardo Social Bistro & Bar 

Set on Sathorn Soi 10, Bardo Social Bistro and Bar is the CBD’s new after-work hangout spot. The venue welcomes you with checkered floors, counter bar seating, and a menu that blends traditional Mediterranean cuisine with modern French influences. Literally break bread with the signature Bardo focaccia appetizer. Depending on your mood, entrées can take either the surf route with crab ravioli or prawn risotto, or turf with a sumptuous bone marrow beef tartare.

SEEN Restaurant & Bar Bangkok 

Avani Riverside Hotel's 26th-floor rooftop restaurant has transformed into the third global outpost of Portuguese celebrity chef Olivier Da Costa's Seen Restaurant and Bar, which features a modern Portuguese-Brazilian menu. The duck confit salad with Japanese wafu dressing sets the tone for the rest of the fusion dishes. Move onto the seafood risotto main, which is made with lobster, ebiko roe, and arugula, and finish it off with a coconut caramel custard served alongside fresh mango.

Erawan Tea Room

Diners will be spoilt for choice at Erawan Tea Room, whose view of the iconic Erawan Shrine is as splendid as their menu’s organic and sustainably sourced Thai dishes. Both the flower-shaped crab meat dumpling, and the minced chicken served in a crispy Thai pastry cup appetizers are packed with flavor. For the main, we’d recommend the Southern-style crab meat curry cooked with betel leaves, or the glass noodles cooked with fermented pork, and stir-fried cowslip creeper. Dessert is a Thai classic: water chestnut dumplings in fresh coconut milk.
